So with the user base likely to grow with the increase in underlying value, I thought it might be good to have a place where people could collate ideas to potentially improve the user experience of Monero.
I don't just mean 'give us a GUI', I mean specifics...something like a wall of post-it notes that could make the devs think 'oh yeah, I'd not thought of that'.
Feature Suggestions:
-
Please consider adding upgrade_wallet function to smartwallet for block versions 3 and 4 to change existing inputs to RingCT inputs until they become compulsory in version 5
-
Please consider giving us a place like a post-it wall for further suggestions. Something where the suggester can get a bit of feedback from the devs like 'not a priority' or 'would like to add but need a specialist to write' etc.

Please consider allowing the deletion of text past the edge of the CLI in a Linux GUI. Eg: If someone is fifteen or so words in and realize they made an error earlier in the word list, and they try and hit backspace/delete to get back, it will hit the edge of terminal and refuse to keep going. It will stay on that single line, hitting the edge of the page and go no further. It's as if someone can't delete more than the single line they're already on when restoring from seed. One proposed solution is using rlwrap, but rlwrap has a log file which is not good for mnemonic seed security, so ideally Monero would include an rlwrap-like functionality within its own CLI.

Add possibility of secure login for RPC system (or the replacement 0MQ system)

Please consider adding CUDA and OpenCL mining to the wallet, this will help with decentralisation and all the code is already open source and available
